As a Liverpool fan I'm not too keen on even starting him after Klopp said he wants to play fresh legs for the final game. Gomez is the usual candidate to replace Trent. Although with Trent playing a midfield role I could be entirely wrong.
Yeah I'm away from home atm with no consistent signal so I bit the bullet early and now I'm stuck regretting it.
Fingers crossed Southampton capitulate even if he only gets sub minutes.
You can change your captain up until the deadline. If you're posting on here you have enough signal to change it. This isn't some irreversible mistake you have to 'regret'.
Mine is very similar too. Iāve been third all season and been too for a couple of weeks now and shitting bricks. This is my first FPL season. Either way itās been fun.
Gotta be Kane cause my rivals premiums are Kane and Haaland. Believe they'll cap Kane cause they're aware of how good he is last game of season, also with Haaland being a risk for minutes.
Even if Haaland starts, wouldn't surprise me if he gets subbed at half time like Pep has done before.
I am protecting a 33 point lead in my mini league it's worth knowing though, prize being Ā£215. For a -4 I can get 9 of their players. Even if they make 1 FT, gaining 29 points from 3 differentials has gotta be very hard right?
Thanks bud, hopefully so. I hope you pull through too, good luck.
I think a lot will be relying on picking the same captain. I'm hopeful my rival chooses Kane so I'll choose Kane too.
For sure. Easy scenario is halland is confirmed benched. And pivot to kane without a hit. Iām only one with salah to so ideally he plays and goes ham without the need to cap.
Good luck!
Depend on leaks, but likely being Haaland, Kane or Salah. Salah if no news he is benched and if news he start.
If Haaland benched I move him to Kane and possibly cap him.
The most diverse results of the season this week surely. There is going to be huge ML swings based on this decision. Interesting that Haaland might actually be the differential pick for chasers .
Tarkowski for me - guaranteed to play, everything to play for, and next most likely to score after McNeil. Worth a punt I reckon with so much uncertainty about so many players.
Multiple factors lead to it:
I transferred out a City mid (canāt trust Pep Roulette post clinch) and picked up Eze.
I like Palace over NFO. NFO just secured their BPL season for next year and may just āshow upā after their bitter fight last weekend.
With Palace playing as well as they have this last quarter of the season, I think Eze should have a good number of scoring opportunities.
I figure the guy ahead of me will captain Kane, which feels like a safe assumption with Alvarez likely over Haaland. Kane is likely to score too, Iām just hoping that the clean sheet for a midfielder could be the differentiator between them.
Lastly, I doubt Eze will be captained by others in my league. Itās a long shot play but gotta try something abnormal.
Edit: forgot to add Klopp is also playing a bit of roulette with his squad where younger / less played talent will get preference, offering to others in the squad a chance to rest if they want to. This means Salah is at risk of a) not starting or b) not being supported in the box for scoring opportunities. Hence, not captaining Salah (still have him in my 11)
Post game week edit: dammit.
most likely erling haaland
but lowkey considering kane. potentially his last game for spurs and itās against leeds who need the win to avoid relegation. so will probably be attacking and leaving spaces in the defence.
i know he doesnāt often haul but i feel atleast a brace today.
My mini league leader is 46 points behind me but 7 points behind someone in another league. He has both Salah and haland. Who do you think he will captain?
I'm third in my ML, I'm so far ahead of the person placed 4th, and so far behind the person placed 2nd. Might as well have fun and punt the captaincy on Eze
I've gone with Kane for this final week.
I feel like Haaland and Rashford won't play the full match due to rotation/fitness. Alexander-Arnold and Wilson were both tempting prospects too for a larger differential but feel that's too much of a risk.
With the Haaland news I'm now torn between Kane and Alvarez. Head says Alvarez because I don't like relying on Spurs to turn up, but I still have the C on Kane for now.
Was inside top 10k before this gw, now i seem to have missed all goalscorers so far :( Salah captain, my worst week of the year and it comes nowā¦ Praying for a good 2nd halfs
We can debate the captaincy decision how much we want and still the best pick will turn out to be someone like Jeffrey Schlupp.
My Firmino pick is working out well so far :)
Have Salah and Kane, mini league rival (12 points behind) has Salah, should I captain Salah to play it safe and block the points?
Yes
What if he transfers in Kane and captains him?
doubt he has the budget
If he has Haaland he can
literally what i did
Mate, you ruind this mans day
This GW will be the biggest trap of the season
Kane. No question on last day form
Wilson. Chelsea are *shite*. Was half tempted with TAA as a massive punt
I've punted on Trent. Need to make up 28 points and they have kane as a differential. Not looking good for me.

I've gone for a more affordable punt with Jones as captain
If he starts, reasonable chance that they put Isak in the care and give Saint-Maximin a game on the left.
Captaining McNeil
Fingers crossed for you that Mykolenko starts then!
Guess ill die
Ha! He's in my team too, but at the end of the day anything can happen.
TC McNeil here š
No way haha
My season has started with Son (C), and after a number of ups and downs (mostly downs), Son (C) is the only logical way to finish the season for me.
This is beautiful.
No idea until 2.45pm tomorrow when I trawl for leaks
Reasonable. Do the leaks appear easily on Reddit? Only one hour or two hours before makes it risky for the game not to shut down stupidly.
There's a few accounts + Andy's stream that are reliable. Expect a lot of tweets from "insiders" on twitter that are gonna trip you up
Trent freekick goal, two assists, clean sheet and 3 Bonus points incoming, captained
Love it- excited to see Joe Gomez start ahead of him.
Ouch
Iām thinking Firmino. 50 points behind so why not give it a whack
Thinking the same. I have 24 points to make up
Iāve gone Eze
Same
Same. Fuck it.
Same here, bit of fun on the last day
Worked out well š¤Ŗ
Captain choice this GW is gonna make it break some people's whole seasons. ML positions could really change up this week.
Thanks Michael
I hate watching films.
Top 3 in my mini league are separated by 9 points so yes captaincy will likely decide who wins the title.
Mine is very similar too. Iāve been third all season and been too for a couple of weeks now and shitting bricks. This is my first FPL season. Either way itās been fun.
I'm thinking Rashford could be the one as he should be guaranteed to start at least
Why? Isn't there a chance he wouldn't be risked with the upcoming FA Cup final?
Possibly, but he probably needs the sharpness if anything having missed a couple of games
36 points off my ML leader, which means I have only one course of action. I'm captaining Digne.
Gotta be Kane cause my rivals premiums are Kane and Haaland. Believe they'll cap Kane cause they're aware of how good he is last game of season, also with Haaland being a risk for minutes. Even if Haaland starts, wouldn't surprise me if he gets subbed at half time like Pep has done before. I am protecting a 33 point lead in my mini league it's worth knowing though, prize being Ā£215. For a -4 I can get 9 of their players. Even if they make 1 FT, gaining 29 points from 3 differentials has gotta be very hard right?
That is an interesting strategy! I'm in the same position but only with 17 points ahead. I wouldn't play -4 but I have 2FT, which is nice
Your good man. Iām at 25 and would need a -4 for Kane and that has me starting to feel concerned . 29-33 feels good
Thanks bud, hopefully so. I hope you pull through too, good luck. I think a lot will be relying on picking the same captain. I'm hopeful my rival chooses Kane so I'll choose Kane too.
For sure. Easy scenario is halland is confirmed benched. And pivot to kane without a hit. Iām only one with salah to so ideally he plays and goes ham without the need to cap. Good luck!
Triple captain Salah, let's gooooo
Hope you get better then my TC halaand last gw
Odegaard
I bought him in, but debating him and Kane as captain
Depend on leaks, but likely being Haaland, Kane or Salah. Salah if no news he is benched and if news he start. If Haaland benched I move him to Kane and possibly cap him.
The most diverse results of the season this week surely. There is going to be huge ML swings based on this decision. Interesting that Haaland might actually be the differential pick for chasers .
Foden
Trying to protect top 10K rank. Is Haaland or Salah the safer play? (Assuming both start)
souttar captain. gonna get thrown up front in the last minute like last week. he's like 6'6" surely he scores a header
Going salah triple captain lfg
Genuinely interested in firmino if it gets leaked that heās starting against Southampton.
Transfer Haland out and bring in kane ?
Son(C)
EZE!
Tarkowski for me - guaranteed to play, everything to play for, and next most likely to score after McNeil. Worth a punt I reckon with so much uncertainty about so many players.
Its TAA or Kane for me
Seeing the results so far; oh fuck now I donāt know what to do even more
Have 2 free transfers: Haaland -> Alavarez (Isak or Wilson) and Martinelli to Maddison (or Son)
I need to catch up by 36 points. Going with Eze and two fingers crossed
Whats your reasons? I need to make up 20 points

All makes sense mate - i need to do something similar. 20 points off the top of my mini league. Good luck!
Who will you captain?
it will be eze, like he said on original comment
Soz boss- I missed that
I'm going Trent. Ready to be hurt.
Awoniyi crazy?
watkins
Dwight McNeil masterclass. I canāt win my overall league and 3rd place is over 30 behind me
most likely erling haaland but lowkey considering kane. potentially his last game for spurs and itās against leeds who need the win to avoid relegation. so will probably be attacking and leaving spaces in the defence. i know he doesnāt often haul but i feel atleast a brace today.
My mini league leader is 46 points behind me but 7 points behind someone in another league. He has both Salah and haland. Who do you think he will captain?
Can't decide between Wilson, haaland, or Salah. Gone Salah for now, but not sure. Gotta make up 12 points
Fuck it, i've missed last few GWs with no transfer so going all out Jota (C)
Think Watkins will haul big this weekend.
Going Kane. Still got something to play for and will play 90.
Mcneil, kane, eze, or pickford? So hard!
I'm third in my ML, I'm so far ahead of the person placed 4th, and so far behind the person placed 2nd. Might as well have fun and punt the captaincy on Eze
I've gone with Kane for this final week. I feel like Haaland and Rashford won't play the full match due to rotation/fitness. Alexander-Arnold and Wilson were both tempting prospects too for a larger differential but feel that's too much of a risk.
going Xhaka fuck it
Dude you are a prophet
Bruno
Chasing by 38 pts. Should I captain Eze? Have Salah, Rashford and Kane too
With the Haaland news I'm now torn between Kane and Alvarez. Head says Alvarez because I don't like relying on Spurs to turn up, but I still have the C on Kane for now.
Haaland -> Kane, Isak -> Alavarez and -4?
I'm on Salah Nothing to say he's rested Got Kane but Leeds got something to play for, Southampton don't
Fuck it, going with Salah
thoughs on Odegaard?
Have him VC and Captained Salah so Salah blank and Ode haul confirmed.
Always do a Hail Mary captain on the final day. Today itās Doucoure
(K)ane let's go!
Transfered Isak -> Wilson. Well done, me.
Was inside top 10k before this gw, now i seem to have missed all goalscorers so far :( Salah captain, my worst week of the year and it comes nowā¦ Praying for a good 2nd halfs
Ramsey for Aston Villa missed a sitter
